NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MAY 9, 1870.—TRIPLE SHEET. widows will deplete the national Treasury? ‘When was there in ) Uplteg States a caso pas 9 sy %: ‘3? When will there be again? The reference to those small wrecks of pecuniary means saved from Mr. Lincoln’s personal estate is not only puerile, but actually borders upon downright meanness. Contrasted with the appalling overthrow of the glorious * hopes of” lifetime, they must be to Mrs, Lincoln. but the merest dust and ashes, Let any reasonable mind contemplate the fear- ful change to her from companionship so exalted, station so conspicuous and influential, at an epoch so grand in history—the homage of courts and camps and the plaudits of a mighty people—to widowhood, obscurity, neg- ect, and, as Mrs. Lincoln pleads, such penury of means that she cannot resort to the healing waters rendered necessary by her shattered health, Before such a plea, in memory of the past, in honor of the present and in justice to the fature, technicalities and red tape should at once give way. Such is the general feeling of the nation and such, beyond all question, must be the secret wish of General Grant. Ata time when expenditure is so lavish that hosts of sinecures revel in the nation’s hard-earned treasure, to deny the widow of Abraham Lin- cola the trifing annuity of three thousand dollars per annum for the few years left to her on earth is a littleness unworthy of the smallest city in this rescued Union, let alone its metro- politan Congress. ‘Thus we debase ‘The nature of our seats, and muke the rabble Call our cares fears; w hich will in time break ope’ ya locks of the Senate, and bring 1n the crows peck the eagles, We still trust, however, that the matter may be brought before the Senate and justice be done, not to Mrs. Lincoln alone, but to the memory of the illustrious dead. the territories thus opened to active industry, ten times over all the grants made; and as the goverhment cannot consistently or in fair play make fish of one division of these new Territo- riesand flosh of another, a liberal grant of lands at least to this Sonthern road cannot be de- nied. It will be the giving away a hundred acres to bring ten thousand acres into market. It will be the opening to settlement of five hun- dred thousand square miles of territory, good, bad and indifferent, which never will be de- veloped or settled without a railroad. Nor can a road be built through those uninhabited or only sparsely settled regions without gov- ernment aid. There is, then, in fair play sound policy, no other aRernative left to Con- gress than that at least of a liberal grant of lands and other incidental privileges to this important line. We do not understand that the parties directly concerned in the enterprise ask any bonds. We believe they are willing to con- tract to make the road without a grant’ of bonds, and have actually commenced the work at several points, If the government were to undertake itself to build this road it would cost five times the grants made to the road com- pleted; but even then it would pay. The road, soon or-late, must be built, and the sooner the better; it cannot be built without govern- ment aid, and, as this is the cheapest plan, let Congress, without further chaffering, adopt it, The competition that will follow the building of second Pacific road will be an advantage to the government and the people on both lines which of itself ought to be a reason suf- ficient for a liberal hand in aid of this South- ernline. We believe this consideration turned the scale in favor of grants of lands and bonds made to the Northern road; but it is a con- sideration which will apply with greater force in favor of this Southern route, open and un- obstructed as it is by snows from the beginning to the end of the yeat. A Probable Summer Session of Congress. A Washington despatch conveys the aggra- vating information that Congressmen seriously apprehend the continuance of the session until August. The Tariff bill and the contested election cases appear to be the principal draw-: “backs to an early adjournment, The appro- priation bills, which are almost the only abso- lutely necessary enactments that we have zauch hope of getting out of this Congress, are far advanced and will not cause any delay. ‘The Tariff bill, in its present shape, is worse than useless. We could cheerfully consent to 8 long session if it were likely that the bur- dens imposed by a high protective tariff were to be relieved by the passage of the present bill, but such a consummation does not appear likely. The discussion heretofore has arisen mainly from @ struggle of the various manu- facturing interesis for more protection. The iron, steel, coal, wool and other corporations of the country seem to be directing all the legislation on the subject, ‘while the great mass of the people, who are Interested directly in opposition to these pro- tective cormorants, have but little show. The iron interest has, it is true, received scveral Revere defeats in committee, which fore- Bhadow a reduction of the tariff on that article fn the bill, but it seems highly probable that ithe iron men manceuvring the bill, if they ind the House still disposed to insist on these #eductions, will withdraw the bill altogether. As to the contested elec Sion cases, a good ex- ample was set inthe case of Sypher, which the House might adhere to with excellent ‘effect. Let all the cases be sent back to the people ifthe committee find thaf there were ‘pny frauds whatever perpetrated in the elec- ion. At any rate, we can hardly believe that ‘such a hard working and industrious body as the House of Representatives will remain in jession during the warm, seaside months “merely to admit new members, The Re-organized Commission of Emigra-. tion, The Board of Emigration Commissioners have infused some new blood into their organization by the election of James W. Husted, of West- chester, and Alexander Frear, ‘to fill vacancies created by the resignation{of Chauncey Depew and E. F, Smith, The new members are both men of great vigor ard activity, and possess, moreover, considerable knowledge of the affairs to which the duties of the Emigration Commission pertain. Mr Husted, in his ca- pacity of Deputy Captain of the port for many years, has acquired large experience in our shipping interests, emigrant ships included. Mr. Frear, in his position on the Board of Charities and Correction, would necessarily be brought a good deal into. intimate relations with the Commissioners of Emigration; for although the latter is a State institution, and the Board of Charities is a county commission, their objects are in many respects identical. It is eminently proper, therefore, that Mr. Frear should meet his colleagues of the other board on an equality. Husted and Frear were both members of the last two Legislatures, and, although acting on different party sides of the House participated largely and intelligently in the legislation for this city. Under the new order of things, we look for better times for the poor emigrants, and espe- cially a more perfect management of the depot at Ward’s Island. The Board of Commissioners, as now constructed, isa very efficient body, and if they do not perform their duty faithfuily it will certainty not be from ignorance of what that duty is, Tax Exxction to fill Whittemore’s vacancy in Congress has been ordered by Governor Scott, of South Carolina, for the 15th inst, Whittemore and an ex-naval officer, named Dunn, are the ‘only candidates. As Whitte- more avoided expulsion by resigning, it will be interesting, if he is re-elected, to see whether Congress will yet expel him for the same offence. @be Southern Pacific Ralilroad—A_ Fair Claim Upon Congress. The Southern Pacific Railroad enterprise — to be involved in serious difficulties at ‘ashington: first, among the parties com- peting for the control of the work, and, secondly, in Congress, touching the grant of » lands, &c., in aid of the great undertaking. fin reference to the control of the work, it sppears that General Fremont, the pioneer in Phe project, made in France last year heavy pontracts for supplies of rails and other mate- gials, providing for these purchases in sales of the stock of the company, or of the combined @ompanies concerned in the undertaking, under a general contract. The difficulties $hat have since arisen among these parties, br with other parties, we shall for the present pass by, on the presumption that they will be pettled, and we shall proceed to the considera- tion of the policy of Congress in reference to Shia Southern Pacific road. The route proposed for this road, as we mnderstand it, beginning at Memphis, on the Slississippi (the terminus of two great Ten- messee lines, connecting with all the lines eastward to the Atlantic coast), runs south- eras through Arkansas, a corner of the No Sarzs.—There are no sales of Broad- way property made now while there are doubts as to this Arcade abomination, because there are no buyers of such uncertain real estate. The Astor House put up at auction to- day, under these doubts coucerning this Arcade spoliation, would have to be withdrawn, for there would be no bidders. PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE.

Mo looking at the advantages of this route for wm continental road we may say that from the Mississippi to the Pacific it is several hundred miles shorter than any route north of it; that St lies over a region of plains and tablelands, fina genial climate, where the trains on the road will never be interrupted by snow; that the road will require very little grading, no tannellings or cuttings along mountain sides, ‘and very few costly bridges over rivers or chasms; that the road will not only develop the rich copper, silver and gold mines, and ahe coal and the iron deposits of New Mexico, and the gold, silver and copper mines of Arizona and Southern California, but those of the Mexican States of Chihuahua, Sonora |’ and Lower California, and the pearl fish- eries and other resources of trade of the great Gulf of California, and that the annexation of ese Mexican States will soon follow, as the inning of the final solution of the Mexican question.

On Broad street many churches had their stained glass windows de- sivoyed.

OHIO. an Jay Gould in Cincinnati—Railroad Imbroglios— Arrest of au Exeluspector of Spirits. CINCINNATI, May 7, 1870. Jay Gould reached here last night. His presence here soon after the New York Central party has caused some anxiety. It is reported to-day that the representatives of the New York Central were here endeavoring to make terms with the Otncinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Ratlroad for more intimate business connection with that road, on ac- count of some disturbance of the relations of the Central with the Little Miami road. Rumor further says that Jay Gould is here to prevent any arrangement with the Oincimnati, Hamilton and Dayton road, and that he threatens to build a road from Cincinnati to Dayton if his wishes are not gratified. Whether this is true or not, there is doubtless something important in the wind. ‘The impression 1s gaining ground that the three great roads will not always be content with two routes into Cit nath. Colonel Thomas R. Roberts, tormer inspector of spirits under the revenue laws, was arrested to-day charged with aitixing frauduient brands and usin Traudulent certiicates of whiskey inspection ‘and conspiring with 8, N. Fowler and others to defraud the government. The offences are charged in 1867 and 1868, and the spirits involved amount to from 50,000 to 70,000 gallons, upon which the tax at that time was two dollars per gallon. The government seems to have been working up the case for some time and is_armed with considerable documentary evidence. Roberts was released on bail for hearing next weeks SOUTH CAROLINA.

After more than twenty years of effort to free his Native island General Goicouria \has fallen @ victin to the Spaniards, The announcement of his execy- tion in Havana, published in the HERALD of yester- day, will be received with deep regret by his many Warm friends in the United States. Born in Cuba during the early part of the present century he gave early evidence of those liberal prin- ciples which distingulshed his later years. When Lopez, then in the employ of Cap- tain General Valdes, conceived ms plan of freeing Cuba, Goicouria was one of the few admitted to his confidence. The government becoming suspictous of his loyalty soon made the island uncomfortable a3 a place of residence, and he accordingly left it and came to this country, settling in New Orleans, Here he went vigorously to work organizing jun'as, raising funds aud preparing in other ways lor an uprising of the Cnbans or an invasion of the island from these shores, He opposed the three expedi- tions commanded by Lopez which were made in 1849, in May, 1850, and in August, 1851, on the ground that the forces gathered together were not jae enough, and that the ledders did not possess suitl- cient resources to carry on What he believed would be a protracted wariare. Soon after Lopez was gar- roted, and while the subject of Cuban independence Was at iis height in the Uniied States, the famous filibustering movement of General Quitman was inaugurated. Of this General Goicouria was ap. pomted tieasurer, and itis but jus! to his memory Say that he performed the diities impose? upon him with energy and tidelity. It is trae the move ment Was abandoned, for no appreciable reason, and that the large sum of money contributed by the Cubans and Southern people was literally thrown away, but it 13 certuin that so far as General Golcouria was concerned, he sacrificed much time and no sinall part of his private fortuue to make we expedition a success. ding that nothing coula then be done ior Cuba. General Goicouria torned his attention to Central and South America, iie was assoclated with Walker in his movement against Nicaragua, but, quarreling with that unfortunate leader, left hin and return to the United States before the fatal vermination of the struggie. He then engaged in mercantile pur- sulis, amassing a handsome fortune, During our civil War he took part wiih neither side, On the outbreak of the present rebellion in Cuba he at once prepared {to take an active part agaist the Spau- iards, For some months he was employed organizing the pus expedition of last year, which attempted to leave this port and failed. Goicouria Was captured on the steamer which was to have met the expedition of Gardner's Island, and was lodged in Ludiow street jat!, where he remataed until bailed, Subsequently he left the United states and went to Nassau, from whence he sailed with a party 04 patriots to Cuba, andssucceeded in reaching the interior of the island. At the time of his capture he was en route for Mexico in a diplomatic capacity. General Goicouria was a@gallant, patnotic Cuban, somewhat over-cautious in his movements and measures, but able and euergetic. His death will prove a severe blow to the Cuban cause.
